This from another site...
I'd also suggest that as his lawyer who also suffers from aspergers was in fact able to become a lawyer and function as a lawyer that such a condition is not necessarily any barrier to participation in society, including abiding by rules and laws and it certainly shouldn't be used as a blanket protection from the consequences of any wrongdoing.

The above was from another self-righteous bigot but it shows an interesting mindset, one that might be troubling other dimwits like nicky. This fully functioning and outraged member of society, argues that because one of Arie's lawyers is also a sufferer of aspergers, who 'was in fact able' to become a lawyer, then Arie must be guilty. Well whoopee do, we now all know that every sufferer of aspergers or any similar condition is exactly the same as any other sufferer of the condition, there are no variations in the condition either by extent or exhibiting factors. We can take heart then that every 'normal' member of society is the same as all others, in fact a carbon copy with all the same characteristics and able to reach the same achievements as one another, and likewise it would follow that all 'normal' members of society are equal in their ability to appreciate the arguments and logic of those like Nicky and reach the same moronic precipice that Nicky has reached in being divine and all-seeing. What a pleasure to know I'm just like Nicky, fully capable of understanding, that there is no variations in life, no individual characteristics, we are all the same by Nicky's inspired vision..except, well except me.

At around 8.58 this morning this site
had its 10,000th unique visitor.
This blog began a few weeks off 12 months ago and 2 days after my wife had sent a letter of complaint from her sick bed to Trade Me after being harassed on the boards (even though she was an infrequent poster and expressed no opinions on a particular case) by a bunch of vigilante nutters who cared nothing for her but saw her as someone who should be punished for being my wife. As we attended clinics and surgery, worrying about what might happen to the woman who is the core of our life, in the background was the chatter of the sick souls of the hate-sites, threatening to come to our house, accost our children, take our children away.
I was encouraged to start the blog by reason that it was felt it was better to confront in cyber-space the stalkers who were prepared to go into the lives of those that didn't hold their vigilante views, and worse into the lives, of families friends and children.
There are things in my life that I admit not being proud of and which still trouble me. But I am proud of my family and my ancestors, proud also to stand up for those silenced or left behind by judgemental fools, by the angry and dispossessed through their own loneliness and bitterness and unwillingness to have love in their hearts.
I hope I may be able to continue to play a role in making the internet safe for users and their families, while at the same time be provocative in challenging what makes each of us human and how we might treat one another, perhaps learn that fear of things unknown, or people unknown is a crippling disability that can be overcome by not judging things or people we may not understand, and to be able to see and hear that which is between the lines.
I hope I haven't offended too many, and don't really care about those that dared come near my family, even by subtle machination.
For the great majority of others, thank you for taking the time to visit here. My best wishes to you.

Police Headquarters seems to want a pound of flesh from Arie Smith,
even though he has a disability that compels him to take light fixtures, head office wouldn't agree to diversion despite it being requested twice already and on this occasion referred by Judge John Strettell. Police were reported as having earlier said that diversion was not going to be offered because of the seriousness of the case, and the public interest in it.
Somebody is not reading this case properly, this case isn't serious but for the reason that police haven't acted decisively in recognising Arie's condition. Even the building's owners were 'astonished and extremely concerned that someone had been prosecuted for the burglary.' If that's correct even the victims of the crime are concerned that Arie is being prosecuted. I might need reminding of something, but I thought burglars stole for profit, to benefit themselves with someone elses money or goods - but it only seems that Arie wanted to rescue the light fittings for the symbolism of meaning to him, and we might never know how the impact of the earthquakes affected that. Arie isn't a burglar, he has no convictions. He's somebody who will keenly help out others with part of him still child-like. Judge John Strettell recognised at least that, and probably, more from his lawyer's point of view, that its unlikely able to be proved that Arlie had the necessary ingredient, mens rea, a guilty mind.
Let him go, don't make a disabled young man unable to resist rescuing lights, saving them or whatever, a serious case of public interest, we have enough of those that clearly fit the criteria

Would kent Parker be so silly to leave
an electronic footprint to add to other evidence that shows he's been stalking? Annette Curran, Christie Williams and Glenda O'Brien were that stupid, but would he be as equally thick?
Yes he would.
Thanks Kent.
Yes he would.
Thanks Kent.

Old Mayor Len ain't what he use to be....
Remember when Len ordered the Palace Hotel to be demolished in a fit of post election ejaculation? When he wouldn't let the owners have their own engineers assess the site, when he took no counsel of what if any parts of the old Auckland landmark might be saved - when he ordered the old building to be torn down despite the city being host to many engineers capable of constructing a temporary stabilisation of the building, when, he Mayor Len, a lawyer - did not advise the owners that they could seek an temporary injunction to stop the lowering of the building. Remember him, old comb-over Lenny, robed-up and all goofy looking?
Well his council said there was evidence to prosecute the owners of the building, asking the world to believe, that there was some benefit for the owners to tear their own building down - even if the revved and useless council were going to do it anyway cause old Len wanted to make dust - it was closest he'd ever get to the OK corral come high noon. Now, months later, when the dust has settled, and Mayor Lenny has restrained himself from getting a hair transplant - the truth comes out. There is no evidence to prosecute the owners of the Palace Hotel, none zilch. No comment though if there is any evidence to prosecute the building compliance and inspection officers of the council, no no no. Mums the word on that one.
I wonder if where now might see a suit against Mayor Len and his council from the Chow brothers and a salutary lesson to the Auckland Council at least not to panic and become gungho just cause the wind is blowing wind blown dust and dirt. Oh Lenny boy.

I can't confirm all the detail of this, nor to claim to be more than an amateur in understanding dna profiling, but I do recall that the police had to search high and low for a scientist to make the confirmations in the Lundy case. I also recall there was a problem with dna profiling or forensic findings in the Barlow case, and no doubt the whole country remembers Jules Mikus snr was a serial sexual offender.

Amanda Knox, the 'golden bullet' evidence falters....
Amanda Knox's appeal continues in Italy, the court appointed independent experts requested by the defence have reported that the analysis of 'golden bullet' dna evidence found weeks after previous searches was 'below international standards' and the evidence 'might have been contaminated.'
The 'wonder' evidence that arrives 'after' previous searches and when the case against a suspect is looking frail - appears to again fail. Here in New Zealand we've seen the cartridge cases recovered from a garden strip weeks after it had already been searched, but hello, the cases had not even been manufactured at the time of the crime, nine more years before Arthur Thomas would have that convicted set aside or be 'pardoned' for it. David Bain had a similar experience, days after his brother's room had been meticulously searched, an officer whose job wasn't to search but was in fact in charge of the scene, returned after hours and found a 'lens' that was said to match David's glasses. As time moved on the lens was found to have been dusty and 'under' clothing possibly in the room for a lot longer than the few days since the family annihilation or even 'put' there by somebody, and finally not to be from David's glasses at all (something the prosecution decided to withhold from the 1st Jury.) Of course there is another case of this type, that of Scott Watson who had a blanket from his boat screened for evidence, then on a '2nd' screening was found to have a hair allegedly from one of the deceased discovered on it - pretty hard to miss a long blond hair when that is the type of thing the forensic scientist would have been looking for. So the common thread, dna not found first time round in the Knox case and now its screening analysis found to be wanting, a cartridge case found on a 2nd search in the Thomas case that was even manufactured at the time of the murders for which he was falsely imprisoned, a 'magic' appearing lens in the Bain case found by an officer not directly involved in the search and after other officers had already searched the small room - and any complicity was required to be shown, the Crown with-holding evidence of a witness who said that the lens wasn't from David's glasses, the magic 'appearing' hair in the Watson case to add to a long list of other equally unpalatable fissures in a case that needed alleged incrimination's of the character of Scott to get over the line of what has all the appearances of another false imprisonment - time to let him go, as I hope that Amanda Knox is let go.
Her case also, like Scott's, makes up for its shortfall in evidence by impinging on the character of the accused and unproved propositions cast to set a distaste for allegations of (shock horror we're back in the 17th Century) a 'sexual' nature.
Give it up you framers. Show some guts, if you don't have the evidence don't 'make' it.
